Saving the MC-09 settings to
an external sequencer (Bulk
Dump)
Data for the currently selected pattern, process patch or all
saved settings, can be transmitted to an external MIDI
device. This function is called bulk dump. You can create a
backup of the MC-09’s data by using bulk dump to record
the data on an external MIDI sequencer. You can also use this
function to replicate the current settings of one MC-09
(except for the Loop setting) on another MC-09.
Saving MC-09 data on an
external MIDI sequencer
1. Use a MIDI cable to connect the MC-09’s MIDI OUT to
the MIDI IN of your external MIDI sequencer.
2. Press the [SETUP] button.
3. Press the [INC] or [DEC] button until the display
indicates “ ”(Bulk Dump).
4. Press the [ENTER] button.

display will blink. When transmission is completed, the
display will show .
9. Stop recording on your external MIDI sequencer.
10. Press the [EXIT] button to complete the bulk dump.
Restoring MC-09 data from an
external MIDI sequencer
The data that was saved by a bulk dump is referred to as
bulk data. By loading this bulk data, you can reproduce the
state in which the MC-09 was when it transmitted the bulk
data.
1. Use a MIDI cable to connect the MC-09’s MIDI IN to
the MIDI OUT of the external MIDI sequencer.
2. Press the [SETUP] button.
3. Press the [INC] or [DEC] button until the display
indicates “ ”(Bulk Receive).
4. Press the [ENTER] button.
The MC-09 will wait to receive bulk data.
If you decide to cancel, press the [EXIT] button.
5. Play back your external MIDI sequencer to transmit the
bulk data to the MC-09.
While the MC-09 is receiving bulk data, the display will
blink.
When bulk data reception ends, the display will indicate
“”. This display will continue for approximately 60
seconds.
* Never turn off the power while “ ” appears in the
display. Doing so will damage the data in the memory card
and internal memory.
* You must transmit all of the bulk data.
6. Press the [EXIT] button to complete the operation, after
the display indicates “ ”.
